Microconnect V-FTP6A05S slanke netwerkkabel zwart 5 m Cat6a U/FTP (STP)

The Microconnect V-FTP6A05S-SLIM RJ-45 Cat6a 5 m Black is a slim, high-performance network cable designed for space-constrained IT racks and cabinets. This 5 m straight-through cable meets Cat6a channel standards up to 500 MHz and supports data rates up to 10 000 Mbit/s. It features U/FTP (V-FTP) shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends, offering reliable connectivity in professional network installations.

Advantages

The slim and highly flexible construction improves accessibility in tight installation areas and enables quick, easy connector switching. Reduced cable diameter enhances airflow inside racks and cabinets, which helps lower equipment temperature and reduce the risk of downtime. Each cable is channel link tested to Cat6a (up to 500 MHz) and includes strain protection at the connector to prevent damage during installation in confined spaces.

Suitable for

• Structured cabling in server rooms and data centers
• Patch panels and densely packed network racks
• Office networking where space and airflow are important
• High-speed Ethernet links up to 10 Gbit/s over appropriate distances

How to use

Route the slim Cat6a cable through the rack or cabinet space and insert RJ-45 connectors firmly into the appropriate ports on switches, patch panels or network devices. Use the cable’s flexible design to make tight bends where necessary while avoiding sharp kinks. Ensure connectors are fully seated; the integrated strain protection reduces the risk of connector damage when pulling the cable through limited spaces.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, maintain proper bend radius and avoid excessive tension when installing. Keep shielded termination practices consistent with U/FTP cabling requirements and use proper patch panels or shielded ports to preserve grounding and shielding effectiveness.
